1 FOR 3



It was all set. I could see an Ouija board bigger and astute than mine, below in front of me. A copper colored coin lied on top of it. I tried to recognize the source of that chant. But nothing was materialistic. All I could see was three colors of smoke surrounding the board. Just like how the creature sees things in the movie “Predator

Commendable humans, please come. Commendable humans, please come. Commendable humans, please come

The fact, I think, threw a chill to my spine. (How can I say spine? I’m just a soul now; no more a biological entity. An antonym to existence with no identity.) They are spirits and they are playing Ouija board. They are calling upon humans just as we call them. Now I’m transmitted into their territory by the wish of three unknown spirits. I’m no more a free individual. I have three masters now. I’m on their mercy. What will I do know? I can’t float like this till time ends. I have a home out there, my parents, my career. What’s there in enjoying life as a see-through ghost?
I have to do something now. Let’s go for it. First I’ll baptize them as red spirit, blue spirit and green spirit. I just let myself heavy and I was lowered to the ground. It was just like getting used to a super power. It sat at the empty edge of the board and gave a mild push to the copper tinted coin from my side.
It has come. It has come”. An enthusiastic female voice felt to be heard.

Hey!!! There is a lady among them. I didn’t expect a female spirit to be there. After all I didn’t hear such a voice when they chanted the welcome note for me. See how I’ve been paid. I longed for a female spirit to come to me and here I am under the finger tip of one.

We’ll start with him. Let’s not waste time. It’s already late. Tony will be waiting for us to join the Midnight Bash”. A stiff but younger voice said.
You know it well Arun. You’ve done much research on it during your college days. You kick off”. Claimed the lady.
Well Tara. You always want me to kick off everything. But always hesitated to kick off your life with me”. Said the stiff voice again. ”Hi good human, shall we all know your name? What is your name good human?

That’s too much to gather for me. The stiff voice is Arun. He must be the blue guy. That streak of smoke is distracted whenever the stiff sound comes. Green is Tara. The lady spirit. And God!! These are educated spirits. This blue guy had been to college and done some research on Ouija board. They are partying spirits coz some buddy spirit Tony is waiting for them to join a Midnight Bash it seems. Where am I? What are these people? Is it some other planet or is it a place where dead people from earth goes to or is it from this place that people are born to earth?
May I know your name, good human?

They are asking me. I’m bound to say something. I’ll have to let them play with me as much as they want and make them bid me goodbye to get out of this hell. I’ll better lie to them. Incase if it’s the place where I’ll be coming after my death I don’t want these people to recognize me then and claim that ” Hey we had made a fool of this crack before”. I’ll call myself Harry.
I started moving the coin to H. But it got stuck just before it reached H. It’s not moving. What the hell. I added my middle finger also to push it. No way. May be some mistake with H. I’ll let it as Maddy. I started moving it to M. Same. It stood stone-still near M. Is it so that I can’t lie to these crack pots? Then I’m screwed for real. I gave up trying to cheat them. I have no time to play a detective game with them.

I slowly moved the coin and placed it on R.
